Agent Woo to the Machinist: "As it stands right now, were looking at renting out some space out near the airport for you all, as it would make transportation arrangements easier. We're waiting on Mr. Smith to approve the funding request I submitted to him, but I don't see that as a problem.
Okay, as long as we don't have to live there but we use it as command post, I willing to give it a try with Power Chord's agreement of course.
My experience is always to expect problems with Mr. Smith, but 'corraling' us will make him look good so I expect you are right on his approving the funding.

As far as the press is concerned, for the moment, I'll be handling any requests for interviews, as we'd like to keep a handle on things. DC wants to make sure you're, and I quote, "presenting the proper image to the public, in this time of uncertainty." (She rolls her eyes as she says it.).
Machinist thinks to himself, "Careful you could easily fall for her and where would that lead you."
Machinist smiles at Agent Woo, "Oh, I had no interest in doing the interviews myself, but I would like to meet Amber Green. Reporters are still the best at finding hidden truth and I feel like we owe her that much after the way we snubbed her at the fire."
"I promise to let you do all the talking and I will present the 'proper image'."
The Machinist quickly created a projector which showed an image on a hero with a cleft chin; wavely black hair; squaire jaw; red, while, and blue tights; billowing cape; and a giant 'M' on his chest.
"Something like this?" He asked hoping Agent Woo would laugh or at least smile.

Agent Woo to the two of you: Oh, and before I forget, when you're finished could one of you try to reach Skyhawk for me? (Rampart will be familiar with Skyhawk, as he was briefed on him) We'd ask him to check out the area where that meteor shower struck the other night, and they're riding me for some sort of report before the end of the day."
"Sure, gladly." Machinist touches his visor to activate his comm. He signalled Skyhawk. If he has problems reaching him. He will strengthen the signal using laser communications and an array of satellites.
"Skyhawk, do you read me. This is Machinist. We need you to report in with your situational status, come in Skyhawk."
